Slough Jets are an ice hockey team from Slough, Berkshire, England. The team was founded in 1986 after the construction of the Slough Ice Arena in Montem Lane in Slough. With the help of Gary Stefan who had previously been with Streatham Redskins, the Slough Jets were formed.
The Slough Jets are one of the few clubs in the UK who from their foundation have continued to play to the present day without interruption or a change of name. They currently play in the English National Ice Hockey League (NIHL) South 2 Wilkinson Division, which is the fourth tier of UK hockey.[1]
The Slough Jets' home rink is the Slough Ice Arena, which is also known as the "Hangar", though the arena is undergoing renovation so the team is playing out of a temporary facility operated by Silver Blades[2] in the car park of the site.
The Slough Jets also have a junior programme with under-13's (South 2), under-15s (South 1) and under-18s (South Two).
Future Oscar winner Gareth Unwin, who produced The King's Speech, once played for the team.
